Unicode Version 17.0
辇
U+8F87 "辇" CJK Unified Ideograph- is a Chinese character representing a hand-pulled carriage or palanquin, traditionally used by emperors and high officials in ancient East Asia. Its components combine the radical for "car" (車) with elements suggesting movement or pulling, reflecting its historical role as a vehicle for royalty during ceremonies and processions. In modern usage, the character appears primarily in classical texts, historical contexts, and compound words like "辇驾" which refers to the imperial chariot, though it is rarely used in everyday contemporary Chinese writing.
